I have grown up on Zandra Rhodes, I remember as a child forcing my mum onto a coach from Wales and taking me to Zandra's famous Textile Museum in Bermondsey. To now be working with such a legend is such an honour and SO MUCH FUN! Zandra's studio is full to the ceilings with the most incredible sketchbooks rammed with drawings and mark making from her life long adventures........ Zandra choose 5 of her favourite sketches from these books and for the first time in her life digitally printed these sketches to produce this small collection, conveniently titled 'Sketchbook Collection'. Here are the shots by photographer Masha Mel. All headpieces by Piers Atkinson, accessories Zandra Rhodes and shoes Charlotte Olympia.

For the Dec issue of VOGUE I was asked to team up with photographer Thomas Cooksey to shoot a promo story dedicated to UNIQLO....... I actually really love UNIQLO as a brand, they exude confidence, know their products inside out and always stock the greatest colours!! I loved shooting this story and became even more excited to learn the images have gone in store and fill the windows throughout central London!

Here is a short film we made for the wonderfully talented milliner Piers Atkinson. Titled 'Directors Cut' this SS13 film, by Morgan White, captures Hollywood Glamour at it's best. Thanks to everyone for making this possible! You can see this film along with a write up by Katharine K Zarrella on STYLE.COM.

I first met David Koma at CSM MA private view and we have worked together every season since. This season David based his SS13 collection on his love for tennis and we teamed up with photographer Thomas Cooksey to shoot these press shots.........

This shoot is a personal favourite of mine. Rollacoaster Magazine asked me to shoot a Diesel story for their latest issue with photographer Jeff Hahn and we jumped at the chance to shoot THE most adorable couple in the world........... please meet Harry Uzoka and Leomie Anderson ( both at Premier Model Agency)....

I love spotting new talent and when I first saw Kitty Joseph's RCA MA collection I had to meet her! As a lover of pattern and colour myself Kitty's work is totally up my street. Bold, brave, young and fresh. Kitty's acute eye for detail, confidence with colour and appreciation of weird and wonderful fabrics, such as neoprene, mesh, lycra and perspex make Kitty one of the most exciting newcomers in London.

Piers Atkinson and I have been working together since he launched his label and this season welcomed our 10th anniversary! With a firm nod to Hollywood glamour Pier's took inspiration from the big screen and together with photographer Morgan White we cinematically documented each hat to create a series of images for SS13. Here are just a few of them, please visit Piers Atkinson's website for more!
